Power of porting
Power of porting
I only drive my RX-7 (an 89 GTUs) on the weekends and during summer when I don't have school, so how would a bridge port work? Can I pass emissions without some crazy cat combo? Is there any way to make it idle a little milder? I could learn to love the idle, but smoother would always be cool.
Finally, how much hp could I get out of it?
BTW I already have headers, no cats, and a cone filter.
One more thing: what kind of quarter times can I run shifting at 8500?

well, a BP is basically going to require you to rebuild your engine every 5-10K miles. Emissions with stock cats will basically be impossible, so some underhanded/crafty tricks would have to be implemented. The idle is going to have to be at ~1500-2000 RPM, and there is no way to get around that.
I do not think this is something that you want to consider. If you really want to port, go with a large streetport. No more.
Please search first, before asking this type of question. This is covered very often.
A bridgeport is a 1500 idle nothing more nothing less. You can get it to pass emissions just fine. 220 rwhp would be the goal of a bridgeport. As for the qt mile its still a no answer because shifting is only a part of the problem to get a lower time. The biggest part in running a low et in the qt is the 60footer a 2.0 or less is the goal and shifting as high as you can is usually what to do especially in a GTUs -Gabe
